Taiwan Strait Network October 8 According to the Hong Kong China News Agency, the former Kuomintang Kaohsiung mayor Han Kuo-yu
on Facebook that on the 10th, he will go to Kaohsiung City Speaker Xu Kunyuan daughter Xu Caizhen, who runs for city council, to assist in the election. He also issued a "arrow through the clouds", emphasizing at the end of the article, "Good friends, see you in Kaohsiung!" This move is equivalent to officially announcing that even if Han Kuo-yu is not the protagonist, he will not miss the "nine-in-one" election voting on November 26. What impact can Han Yu effect like
have on this election? Looking at the current situation, there are three highlights to observe. First, how much Han Yu's appeal has come back; second, whether Han Yu's fire can prolong the election situation across Taiwan and create a big victory for the Kuomintang; third, whether Han Yu will test the water temperature through this auxiliary election. If all walks of life respond well, there will be many possibilities in his future next step.
Han Kuo-yu failed in the 2020 "general election". After being dismissed on June 6 of the same year, he stayed away from the political arena. Even though he published a book and held a signature meeting in January this year, attracting a large number of people to support him, he still mainly focused on public welfare activities. It was not until recently that he frequently appeared to help the Kuomintang county and city mayor candidates and county councilor candidates to make videos and recommend elections, etc., which are considered to be signs of a comeback. It was not until Han Kuo-yu posted a preview on Facebook on the evening of the 7th that he would go to Kaohsiung to support Xu Caizhen on the 10th that he officially announced the launch of his auxiliary election campaign.
Han Kuo-yu's public platform selection first stop was chosen, and Xu Caizhen, the daughter of Xu Kunyuan who had been in love with him in the past. The significance behind it is very important. Because of this, it seems that this event will be the focus of the whole Taiwan on the 10th. Korean fans who have been silent for a long time are flocking to come, and there will definitely be no shortage of people at that time.
If it can fire the first shot of the return-to-select, and the next time, the occasion of inviting Han Kuo-yu to stand on the platform, can it continue to maintain the energy of the heyday of the Korean wave in the past, or even reach more than 60%, this will be an indicator for Han Kuo-yu, who is only the auxiliary role, and this will be the biggest highlight of the Han Kuo-yu effect.
The second highlight is whether the Han Kuo-yu effect can spread throughout Taiwan, which plays a key role in the Kuomintang's stalemate election zone. Han Kuo-yu's platform effect is definitely more than enough to boost the election of councilors in some counties and cities. However, in the county and city mayor election, the Kuomintang, including Taoyuan City, Hsinchu City and Miaoli County and other places, are considered to have had the opportunity to win, but the election situation is still stalemate or sluggish. If Han Kuo-yu's auxiliary election effect can spill over widely, it will play a key role in these areas and win more seats than the current 14 seats in county and city mayors, which will boost the Kuomintang's long-sluggish morale.
The third highlight is Han Kuo-yu’s personal part. In the 2020 "general election", Han Kuo-yu's image was violently operated by the DPP to become a negative label. Even though there were many die-hard Korean fans, there were more people who hated South Korea at that time, which also led to his opponent Tsai Ing-wen's highest vote in the election in history. South Korea was subsequently dismissed from the position of mayor and was hit hard. After more than two years of adjustment, Han Kuo-yu's auxiliary selection this time is also trying to find out the waters for himself, and regaining his political role through auxiliary selections in non-protagonist ways.
If all parties respond well, then the "nine-in-one" election will be followed by the "general election" in January 2024. Whether Han Kuo-yu wants to challenge the "big throne" again, he has the opportunity to become a powerful tool to help the Kuomintang return to "rule".
